Tonight

Famous quotes containing the word tonight:

    And tonight our skins, our bones,
    that have survived our fathers,
    will meet, delicate in the hold,
    fastened together in an intricate
    lock. Then one of us will shout,
    “My need is more desperate!”
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    And if tonight my soul may find her peace
    in sleep, and sink in good oblivion,
    and in the morning wake like a new-opened flower
    then I have been dipped again in God, and new-created.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Do not enforce the tired wolf
    Dragging his infected wound homeward
    To sit tonight with the warm children
    Naming the pretty kings of France.
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
